Interspecific variation in life history relates to antipredator decisions by marine mesopredators on temperate reefs.
As upper-level predatory fishes become overfished, mesopredators rise to become the new 'top' predators of over-exploited marine communities. To gain insight into ensuing mechanisms that might alter indirect species interactions, we examined how behavioural responses to an upper-level pred...
